"I Am a Professional."

I followed a link from Jen Jordan's blog to the Commonly Confused Words Test. My results:

Advanced

You scored 100% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 93% Advanced, and 72% Expert!

You have an extremely good understanding of beginner, intermediate, and advanced level commonly confused English words, getting at least 75% of each of these three levels' questions correct. This is an exceptional score. Remember, these are commonly confused English words, which means most people don't use them properly. You got an extremely respectable score.

Test statistics:

* Compared to users who took the test and are and in your age group:

o 100% had lower Beginner scores.
o 100% had lower Intermediate scores.
o 100% had lower Advanced scores.
o 100% had lower Expert scores.

* With respect to Beginner, users aged 55 to 59 scored highest.
* With respect to Intermediate, users aged 55 to 59 scored highest.
* With respect to Advanced, users aged 55 to 59 scored highest.
* With respect to Expert, users aged 55 to 59 scored highest.


I also scored 730 on the GRE verbal and taught English comp for six years. In the grammatically-incorrect words of Ralph Malph, it's nice to know "I still got it."
